Little v Elders Shailer Park

In this case, the respondents, Elders and its subsidiary, sought to have a class action proceeding brought by the applicant, Little, dismissed. The applicants sought to bring a class action proceeding against Elders and its subsidiary on behalf of all Australian cattle producers who had sold cattle to Elders since 1 January 2002. Elders claimed that the proceeding should be dismissed because the applicant did not have standing to bring the proceeding on behalf of the class. Little argued that the court should not dismiss the proceeding because it had standing to bring the proceeding on behalf of the class. The court was required to decide whether the applicant had standing to bring a class action proceeding on behalf of the class.

The court found that the applicant did not have standing to bring a class action proceeding on behalf of the class. The court found that the applicant did not have standing to bring a class action proceeding on behalf of the class because it did not have a cause of action that was common to the class. The court found that the applicant's claims were based on a contract that it had with Elders and its subsidiary, and that the applicant's claims were not common to the class.
